| Research Abstract |
This research project aims to acquire cues of self-regulation using neurofeedback (NFB) training, then to find to effective markers to estimate its improvement for person with/without developmental disorders. In order to achieve this goal, we developed neurocognitive assessments with the function of attention using event-related potentials (ERPs) and near-infrared stereoscopy (NIRS). The multi-dimensional assessment in qualitative and quantitative aspects revealed (1) changes in subjective controllability, (2) changes in controlled attention based on the augmentation in frontal N2 component and right prefrontal hemodynamic activity. Improving self-regulation through NFB suggested the decrease in uncontrolled behavior related to developmental problems.
